Registration Process

All out of district and out of attendance area students must be approved by the Board of Education
each year. This approval must be granted before you may enroll your student(s):

Out of District/Attendance Area FormThe USD 437 Board of Education is unable to accept or approve first time (new) out of district requests because of space consideration and resource issues.

If you had one or more students complete the prior school year at an Auburn-Washburn school, please
follow the steps for completing
returning family registration.

If none of your students completed the prior school year at an Auburn-Washburn school, please
follow the steps for completing the
new family registration.

Completing registration does not guarantee permission to enroll; it is a means for
collecting your information and notifying the district of your desire to attend. You must
submit a completed application and be approved by the Board of Education.

Transportation Fee

Out of district/attendance area families who are approved by the Board of Education and utilize the
school bus will be assessed a fee of $50 per student, per semester. This fee is capped at $200 per
family per school year. If your family qualifies for free meals, and you complete the
Optional Consent for Disclosure for the current school year,
this fee will be waived.
